In th* palace of winked Jeroboam there ia I tick ohiid?a very sick child. Medicines have failed; skill is exhausted. Young Abl?

Peath comes up the broadsmirsof tho pallico nnd swings back tho door of tbe sickroom ot royalty and stands looking at the dying prince With t--o dart up'ifted. Wicked Jero? boam knows that he has no rii*ht to ask any? thing of ibe Lord in tbe way of kindness. Ho knows that his prayers would not be an? swered, and so he sends his wife on the deli? cate and tender mission to tte prophet of tne Lord In Shiloh. Putting aside her royal attire, she puts on the garb of a peasant wo? man and starts on the road. Instead of car? rying gold and gems as sho might have car? ried from rhe palace sh** carries only l hos j gift"* which ssem to indicate that sho belong!? io the peasantry?a lew loaves of bread and a lew cracknels and a cruso of honey, Yon dor she goes, hooded and veiled, tho greatest lady in all tho kingdom, yet passing unob terved. No one that meets har on the high? way has any idea that she is the flrst indy in bl! the land, She is a queen in disguise. The fact is that Peter the Great working In the dry docks of Saardam, the .sailor's hat and the shipwright's ax gave him no more thorough disguise than the garb of the peas? ant woman gave to the queen of Tirzah. But the prophet of the Lord saw the deceit. Al? though his physical eyesight hal failed, ho was divinely illumined, and at oue glance locked through tho imposition, and he cr;ed out: "Come in. thou wife of Jeroboam! Why felgnest thou thyself to be another? I havo arti tidings for thee. Get thee back to thy house, an 1 when thy feet touch tha gate of Ihe city the child shall die." She had a right to ask for tha recovery of her som she had no right to practice au imposition. Brok<*u hearted now, she started on the way, tha tears falling on the dust of tho road all the way from Shiloh to Tirz.\b. Broken hearted now, sh** is not careful any more to hide her queenly gait and manner. True to the prophecy, the moment her feel touch the gate of the city the child die?. As she goes In the soul of the child goes oui. The cry lu the city palace ls joinel hythe lamentation of a nation, and as they curry good Abijali lo his grave the air is fl.led with the Voice ot eulogy for the departed youth and tho groan of an afflicted kingdom. It is for no Insignificant purpose I hat I pro *ent you the thrilling story of the text. lu iho flrst place I learn that wickedness tu volves others', trying to make them its duper, Its allies and its scapegoats, OeDboam pro? posed to hoodwink the Lord's prophet.

My subject also impresses mo with how peoplo put on masks and how the Lord tears them off. lt was a terrible moment in tho history of this woman of Tirzah when tho prophet accosted her, practically saying: "I know who you are. iou cannot cheat me. You cannot impose upon me. Why foignest thou thyself to bo another?" Sho had a right to as!c for the restoration of htr son*, bho bad no right to practice that falsehood* ll is never right to do wrong. 8omotimes you may bo able to conceal an affair. It is iiot necessary to toll everything. There is a int ural pressure to the lips which seems to indicate that silence sometimes is right, but for doubt ? dealing, for moral shuffling, for counterfeit and for simm God has nothing but anathema and exposure. Ho will tear off tho He Ha will rip up the empiricism. Ho will scatter the ambuscade. There are people who aro just ready to be duped. They seom to bo waiting to bo deceived. They believ,* iu ghosts.

'HE EFFECT DISCUSSED, hore Will Be a Long Debate Before They Can Be Adooted-A Parallel of the Texas Case-There ls No Fearof War With Spain. The meeting ot the 8enate Cotnmltteo on >relgn relations Friday was important in ivo respects. * It resulted tn an agreement to report the ameron resolution (or the recognition of luban Independence, and lt de\eloped, brough tho statement of Secretary Olney, he administration's policy in regard to tho asurreotion in Cuba. The secretary occupied the greater part if the time of the meeting answering ques ions nnd suggestions made by members of ho committee. He and Senator Morgan en ?aged in general colloquies. Mr. Olney nade two points against tho Cameron reso utlon, as follows: First?Tbat the Cuban insurgents have established no government. Second?That tho right to rocognizo a new dato rests with tho President Independent ot Congressional action. Ho contended in elaboration of tho first point that the pretended government of the Island was without habitation. "Suppose you recognize the independenee ot the is? land," he said, "what are you going to do with lt?" "J, for one," replied Senator Morgan, "while advocating this recognition, want it understood that I am opposed to annexa? tion." "How, then, would you maintain its inde? pendence?" asked tho secretary, himself be? coming interlocutor. "How, then, would you, for instance, pre? vent Spanish domination over the island. A Protectorate. "I would," replied the Alabama Senator ''establish, if need be, a protectorate. I would follow much the samo policy that wo are pursuing with regard to Hawaii, and I would send an army of occupation to tho Island, if necessary, as we did in the caso of Mexico." The secretary made the impression upon some of the members of tho committee, by the way he pureued this ilse oi inquiry, that, whilo ho was disposed to hold out strongly for the President's prerogative, he was not nearly so strongly opposed to Cuban inde? pendence as be bad been a year ago, and that he would be entirely reconciled to it, la satisfied as to the future course to be pur? sued. He did not dissent strongly from a point mado that his own report showed a sufficient cause for action, and b<> admits that a state of affairs which permits th* kill? ing ot American citizens aad tho destruction nf American property was deplorable. "They are, however," ht added, "the in? cidents of war." "Not of war jatiperly conducted, bal ni .". waa tho respoiifs-). No Kia borate lie-port. Tbe secretary set at rest the story which fias been very Industriously circulated that Consul-General Lee has provided the Stato Pepartment with an elaborate report on the condition of affairs in Cuba. "It is not true," he said. "General Loe has made no conerai written report at nil He has made reports on several speci.ii cases, but not on the rdtaatlon ai- a who!"."

The proceedings of the committee ai guarded with secrecy, but it is known thi there was no division as to the question i reporting the Cameron resolution. Of conn this does not imply that all members of tl committee intend to support the immedia adoption of the resolution; but it does met lhat the Semite deoms it timo some form --xpressiou of opinion was uttered. The are not half a dozen Senators who do n cordially sympathize with tho Cubans their struggle against Spain. There a point-who think it expedient to defer poi liv> action for awhile. The resolution ls almost certain to cause "-^IctirKi 0. .^reaMlnterest. The prevailii lt' opinion of the Senate aci-of iu? Hei* seems to me that this government has mai festod too much consideration for Spain dealing with the Cuban question, and tb Ibu time has arrived for plain talk. Tho action of the Senate committee v, the leading topic of discussion among me ;>ers of the House and, with very f exceptions thoy expressed the hope tl .he Senato would adopt tho Carnet resolution. In discussing the probable i .ion of Spain, in the event of the recognlti jf Cuban independence by the Un 1 ?Hates, comparatively few Congressmen (<eve that war would resilt. It is malntaii **y some of tho flrst lawyors of Congress t .uch recognition would not afford Sp I legitimate cause ol war agai the Ignited States. But tbo remarks i comments indicato that, In the opinior ihe national lawmakers, a war with Sp would bo in tho nature of a very "sh horse" for this great government to eui If tho excitable Spaniards follow tl usual course of resenting unfriendly se .neut3 expressed by Congress, they will i soma of tho United States Consulates In I country. There is some apprehensior official quarters of such outbreaks, and tho presont state of public opinion h should an American bo injured, it wonk ?xtremely difficult io prevent war. Major McK'nToy will BO*e**d tho twe third man who has held I offlw of P dent of the United State?, out his ad.nl tion will be the thlrty-t-econd in the his of the country. The marriage of the prin?e royal of aly nnd "the Rose of the Black Mo un tln," Princess Helene of Montenegro, hlch took place recently at Rome, is ist now the chief matter of interest i Italy. Tho civil ceremony was per :>rnied in the throne-room of the uirinal and tho ecclesiastical rites ,-ere performed iu the Church of the udario of the Savoyards. The mar iage, unlike most royal matches, is case of love at first sight, the young irince of Naples having seen the 'rincess Helene at Venice and again t the coronation of the Czar at Mo? (iw, whither slit- had gone iu company vith her father. The young prince's .ride is described by the enthusiastic tallang as "stately as a lily nud beaut! ul as a dream," and the marriage Which unites the dynasty of Montene? gro and the houso of Savoy is specially 'ratifying to both tbe Montenegrins md the Italians. The only obstacle in lie way of tlie marriage?the difference ti faith?was removed by the Czar Nicholas himself, as head of the Creek ?hurch, and the first act of the Prince** Helene after landing In Italy under tlie escort of an Italian squadron was to re? pair to the Church of St. Nicholas at Bar! aud formally profess the Roman Catholic faith, while artillery salutes were fired in her honor. Insignificant as Montenegro appears on the map of Europe, it seems certain that Italy has materially strengthened her political position by thia marriage. The little mountain kingdom bau only a lunn 230, 000 Inhabitants and a standing army of 40,000, but it celebrates this year tho bi-centenary of the Montenegrin dynas? ty and has successfully maintained its Independence for the last two cen turlee against Turk and Austrian aud all comers. The Montenegrins are a na? tion of warriors, and the army may bo regarded as simply the entire popula? tion, rb the women follow the men to war. carry the munitions, cook tho pro? visions, and, if need be, fight as bravely ns the men.
